Money to Burn

A Ronnie Ventana Mystery

De: Gloria White

Narrado por: Carol Cowan

She's a burglar's daughter and a first-rate private investigator. And if the tools of Veronica Ventana's trade include a Ph.D. in lock-picking, thank her parents, the infamous Vintners, who made cat burglary a class act.

It's 3:30 A.M. when Bink Hanover bursts into Ronnie's apartment reeking of liquor and fear. Outside are four Uzi-toting thugs and a femme fatale who have chased him to her door. Before you can say "safe house", Ronnie recruits Blackie Coogan, ex-boxer and over-the-hill P.I. Then she's off to find the woman whom Bink calls the "Black Widow", whose previous well-connected lovers have all come into sudden riches: and sudden death. Now Ronnie is bull's-eye in a nasty high-stakes game. From San Francisco's bedrooms to its boardrooms, she's racing to catch a killer before the killer catches her.
